Corinium Care has appointed a new Managing Director.
Clare Janik, previously the Director of Care Services, succeeds Camilla Miles as Managing Director from the beginning of April.
Camilla, who founded Corinium Care in 1995, becomes Chief Executive.
Clare (pictured), who joined the company in 2003, said she is “immensely proud” to take over as MD.
“I am passionate about the care business and about Corinium Care. My aim is to continue to provide our clients with the very best service whilst ensuring our training provides us with the highest quality carers,” she said.
Also promoted is Amanda Butler, who relinquishes her role as Director of Operations to become Commercial Director of the company.
Amanda will put her past skills in newspaper sales to use in her new role. “I’m looking forward to supporting Clare to take the business to new heights,” she said.
Camilla Miles thanked Clare and Amanda for their loyalty and support and wished them well.
“After nearly 20 years nurturing the company and forging one of the most successful live-in care agencies in the industry, it is the right time to build on the management team.
“I have every confidence that Clare and Amanda will continue to take Corinium Care forward, bringing new ideas that will keep the company ahead in such a rewarding industry.”
The company, based in Nailsworth, has been a continuing success story since Camilla launched the agency from her kitchen table in Bisley. Amanda Butler was recruited as her first member of staff.
Since then, the business has gone from strength to strength, becoming a market leader in the live-in care industry.
There are now 17 staff in George Street, Nailsworth, along with more than 800 registered carers, and offices in Zimbabwe and South Africa.
In the last five years, the Corinium team has scooped a clutch of awards including a National Training Award, Business of the Year award, and a triple accolade in the Great South West Care Awards. It has twice been rated ‘Excellent’ by the Care Quality Commission.
